BNC Mania
 

Ok, so the guy that makes my McIntosh Handles works at one of the Boeing Aircraft machine shops. He knows that I am way into audio gear, so he suggested I try some of their custom made BNC RF/EMI Covers for inputs/outputs that are not in use. They do not have a center shorting pin; and are also hermetically sealed for keeping dust and dirt out.

Here is a photo of them installed on my Grandioso G1 Clock;

I am sure it's just in my head, but I believe they make a small improvement in overall detail. What I didn't realize is that I had a need for 59 of them for all of the Clocks, K1, P1, D1, and other associated gear that had open BNC connectors.

I finished covering every single one of them yesterday, and did some critical listening today. I really do like what I am hearing, so they are staying.

As was said on another thread; it's my money and my ears. :)

Can you show some close up photos of the ends and all

When I get a chance; will need my macro lens for that.

Found this in his email to me.

Mouser Electronics sells some that look identical made by Amphenol for $6.87 each; 6 week lead time too.

This is not an ad to sell, but mine cost less.

hello masterlu,
would i be able to buy some of these from you for my esoteric word clock? if so how much are they?

I will order 12 if and when you may make an order.

Bob... consider it done. :ok:

This thread set off my noise paranoia, so I got caps for all ports (RCA, XLR, BNC). It offers a little piece of mind at very low cost.
